<PRE><B>Question 60799</B>
Given  5x – 3y  = 13
       4x – 3y   = 11

Subtract both equations, we get

5x - 4x = 13 -11
x = 2

Substitute the value of x = 2  in the  equation (1), we get

4(2)–3y = 11
8–3y  =11

Get all the numbers to one side, we get

8 - 11 =  3 y
    
- 3 =   3y 
Divide by 3 , we get

-1 = y

Hence the value of “x” =2 and  y = -1
